The City of Shelbyville’s Building and Planning Departments are partnering with Shelby County officials this week to conduct urgent post-flood property inspections throughout the city and surrounding areas.
In a press release, the City of Shelbyville noted that these inspections are being performed in response to recent flooding and are aimed at documenting high water marks and assessing damage before evidence begins to disappear.
City and county teams will be working jointly to complete these assessments as quickly and safely as possible. As a result, citizens may notice inspectors in the field more frequently or may be approached by staff requesting access to their properties for evaluation purposes. All inspectors will be appropriately identified.
Due to the urgency of this coordinated effort, response times at the city’s Building and Planning offices may be delayed through the end of the week. Residents are encouraged to leave detailed messages if they need assistance, and staff will return calls and emails as fieldwork schedules allow.
"We recognize this has been a difficult time for many residents, and we are committed to responding swiftly and thoroughly. These inspections are vital for documenting the impact of this event and beginning the recovery process. We appreciate the public’s understanding and cooperation," said Adam Rude, City of Shelbyville Planning Department Director
